Syro (pronounced /saɪroʊ/; stylised as SYRO) is a studio album by the British electronic musician Richard D James, due to be released under the pseudonym Aphex Twin on 19 September 2014 on Warp Records. It will be his sixth studio album as Aphex Twin and his first studio album release in 13 years since Drukqs (2001). The album is also his first official release as Aphex Twin since Chosen Lords (2006), a compilation of tracks from the Analord series.
Following the release of Drukqs in October 2001 Richard D James released a compilation album, 26 Mixes for Cash (2003), and the penultimate instalment of an extended play series entitled Analord (2005) under the Aphex Twin pseudonym. A selection of tracks from Analord were later released on the compilation album Chosen Lords (2006). A long absence followed, during which time James ceased releasing Aphex Twin material, only performed DJ sets in the United Kingdom and Europe and relocated to rural Scotland.
Warp Records founder Steve Beckett mentioned on BBC Radio 6 Music in 2009 that a new Aphex Twin studio album would "hopefully" be available by the end of the year, though no album was released. Later in 2010 James revealed in an interview with culture and fashion magazine Another Man that he had six studio albums completed. Describing the records, he said among them were two "very non-commercial abstract, modular-synthesis field recordings" which were completed in 2006, as well as Melodies from Mars, a collection of unreleased material from 1995 which was redone in 2007.
